The integration supports the following types of actions: * Retiring devices (removing them from the system while retaining historical records) * Wiping data (without affecting Asset Panda Pro) * Deleting devices (removing them from both Intune and Asset Panda) * Remotely locking devices The integration ensures smooth data synchronization and accurate asset management across both platforms. The integration supports both one-way and two-way synchronization. Device data can be fetched from Microsoft Intune into Asset Panda Pro, and supported fields can be updated from Asset Panda Pro into Intune. {% hint style="info" %} Two-way sync is limited to supported fields only. {% endhint %} You must perform the following steps to integrate Microsoft Intune with Asset Panda Pro and streamline your asset management process: 1. **Enable Microsoft Intune Integration**: Connect your Microsoft Intune account to Asset Panda to fetch device data. 2. **Configure Asset Panda Integration**: Map the Intune device data fields within Asset Panda for accurate synchronization. 3. **Sync Devices and Data**: Sync your devices from Intune to Asset Panda, ensuring real-time updates and accurate tracking. ## Prerequisites * Active Asset Panda subscription * Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD) deployment within your organization * Administrator access to both Microsoft Azure and Asset Panda platforms * Required permissions to register applications, generate secrets, and grant API access in Azure * Relevant collections and fields in Asset Panda Pro. If data is synced into a non-existent field, the integration may not be completed successfully. {% hint style="info" %} It is strongly recommended that one Microsoft Intune field contain unique values that directly match a corresponding field in Asset Panda Pro. A common best practice is to use the Serial Number field as a unique match, assuming it’s already tracked and marked unique in Asset Panda. This prevents duplication by ensuring that synced devices update existing records instead of creating new ones. {% endhint %} ## Key fields and options * **Device Type**: Sync and import assets based on their specific type. * **Device Configuration**: Track devices as "Company Owned" or "Company Managed." * **Asset Panda Management**: Manage synced devices within Asset Panda for real-time updates and consistency. *** ## Set up Microsoft Intune ### Register a new application in Azure 1. In a web browser, navigate to the [**Azure Portal**](https://portal.azure.com/). 2. Sign in using your **Azure administrator** credentials. 3. In the search bar at the top, enter **App Registrations** and select it from the results. 4. Click **+ New Registration**. 5. Enter a name for your application (for example, `Intune Integration`). 6. Under **Supported account types**, select **Accounts in this organizational directory only (Single tenant)**. 7. Click **Register** to create the application. *** ### Retrieve required IDs 1. After registration, go to the **Application Overview** page. 2. Copy the following values for later use: * **Application (Client) ID** * **Directory (Tenant) ID** * **Object ID** *** ### Generate the Client Secret 1. In the navigation pane, select **Certificates & Secrets**. 2. Under **Client secrets**, click **+ New client secret**. 3. In the **Description** field, enter a name (for example, `Intune Secret`). 4. Under **Expires**, select a validity period (for example, 6 months or 1 year). 5. Click **Add** to generate the client secret. 6. Copy the **Value** (not the Secret ID). {% hint style="danger" %} The secret value is only displayed once. Store it safely for later use. {% endhint %} *** ### Assign API permissions in Azure To allow integration with Intune, the application needs API permissions. 1. In a web browser, navigate to the [**Azure Portal**](https://portal.azure.com/). 2. In the navigation pane, select **API Permissions**. The default **User.Read** permission should already be listed. 3. Click **+ Add a permission**. 4. In the **Request API permissions** window, select **Microsoft Graph**. 5. Click **Application Permissions**. 6. Expand **DeviceManagementManagedDevices** and select: * `User.Read.All` * `Group.Read.All` * `DeviceManagementManagedDevices.PrivilegedOperations.All` * `DeviceManagementManagedDevices.ReadWrite.All` 7. Expand **DeviceManagementApps** and select `DeviceManagementApps.Read.All` 8. Click **Add Permissions**. *** ### Grant Admin consent 1. In the **API Permissions** page, click **Grant admin consent for \**. A confirmation message is displayed. Click **Yes**. 2. Ensure that the **Status** column for all permissions shows **Granted**. The following details are required when setting up **Asset Panda Integration with Microsoft Intune**: * **Application (Client) ID**: Used as **Client ID** in Asset Panda Pro. * **Directory (Tenant) ID**: Used as **Tenant ID** in Asset Panda Pro. * **Object ID**: Used as **Application Object ID** in Asset Panda Pro. * **Client Secret (Value)**: Used as **Client Secret** in Asset Panda Pro. *** ## Set up the Microsoft Intune integration in Asset Panda Pro 1. Log into Asset Panda Pro with an administrator account 2. Navigate to **Settings > Account Management**. 3. Expand the appropriate account and module. 4. Click **Manage** in the **Integrations** card. 5. In the **Microsoft Intune** tile, click **Add**, and then click **Edit**. 6. Enter the required credentials that were copied when you set the Microsoft Intune Account Registration in Azure: * Client ID * Client Secret * Application Object ID * Tenant ID 7. Click **Test and Save Connection** to verify authentication. 8. Click **Continue mapping**. 9. Provide a **Mapping Name**. 10. Select the relevant Asset Panda collection to receive the data. 11. Select the appropriate external entity from Microsoft Intune. 12. In the **Mapping** section, map the appropriate field from Microsoft Intune to the relevant column in your Asset Panda Pro collection. See [Configure data mapping and filtering](#configure-data-mapping-and-filtering). 13. Click **Save**. {% hint style="info" %} You can set up an automation to ensure data stays up to date by syncing records at scheduled intervals. {% endhint %} *** ### Configure Data Mapping and Filtering During integration, Microsoft Intune fields must be mapped to corresponding Asset Panda fields to ensure accurate data synchronization. Proper mapping prevents duplication and ensures that device records are updated correctly within Asset Panda. #### **Unique Identifiers** A unique identifier is a field that remains constant and is distinct for each record, ensuring accurate data syncing and preventing duplicates between Microsoft Intune and Asset Panda. Common examples include Intune Device ID or Serial Number, depending on the type of data being mapped. For example: * Use **Intune Device ID** for most environments, as it is system-assigned and consistent. * Use **Serial Number** if your organization tracks it as a unique field in Asset Panda Pro and it is reliably populated. {% hint style="warning" %} Do not use fields like **Device Name**, **User Email**, or **Compliance Status** as unique identifiers, as they can change over time or may not be unique, leading to sync errors. {% endhint %} ### Enable two-way synchronization Optionally, you can configure two-way synchronization to allow updates made in Asset Panda Pro to be pushed to Intune to ensure consistent and up-to-date data across both systems . Two-way sync requires a separate mapping configuration. 1. Create a new mapping. 2. Select **Sync Direction: Asset Panda → Microsoft Intune** 3. Map the supported fields. {% hint style="info" %} Only the following Intune-editable fields are supported: * Managed Device Name * Notes * Ownership {% endhint %} 4. Save the mapping. 5. Run the synchronization via a manual or scheduled automation. Updates in Asset Panda Pro are reflected in Intune. {% hint style="info" %} * Real-time sync is not supported. * Sync behavior depends on automation timing. * Updates are pushed during sync execution. * If updates occur in both systems, the system that syncs last takes precedence. {% endhint %} 6. Review integration logs for information about the synchronization. ### Microsoft Intune fields | Field Name | Description | Mapping & Filtering Guidance | | ----------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Intune Device ID | A unique, system-assigned identifier for each Intune-managed device. | Recommended as the Unique Identifier for matching records. | | Serial Number | Manufacturer-assigned serial number of the device. | Can be used as a Unique Identifier if consistently populated and marked unique in Asset Panda. | | IMEI | Identifier for mobile/cellular devices. | Optional; applicable mainly to mobile devices.
